Book Synopsis

Not What You Think blows the dust off dated misperceptions of the Bible and engages the problems of this book head-on--the parts that make modern readers squeamish, skeptical, and uncertain.

If you''re skeptical about the Bible, you''re not alone. The Bible is seen by many contemporary readers as intolerant, outdated, out of step with societal norms at best, and a tool of oppression at worst.

In this earnest and illuminating read, millennial thought leaders and aspiring theologians Michael and Lauren McAfee are here to say: fair enough. But they''re also here to raise a few questions of their own:

  • What if we cleared the deck on our preconceptions of the Bible and encountered it anew?
  • What if we came with the understanding that our questions are welcome?
  • And what if the Bible presents less of a system to figure out, and more of a story to step into--a story with more surprising plot twists than we might
